{seaglass wreath}

Well hello and how are you this fine Sunday!?!?
I just walked in from a 7 miles run!!! Yippee...I was pretty glad I did it without dieing:) Should've had the hubby take a photo...owell:)

Yesterday I went and got beautified with a cut and a highlight!


She put bangs in and really blonded it up!! Don't you just love it when the stars align and your hair actually turns out the way you picture it in your mind!!
I like mine slightly messy and short! I think it says i'm fun and don't take life too seriously!!

What do you think about the bangs??? Oh and don't look too closely at my wrinkles.
Geesh where did those come from!?!?

and the back!

I love...love..love a fresh hair cut and highlight!! I just wish it were free:)

I also spent the weekend tinkering with simpledaisy and taking photos of the new jewelry i've been making!!!
Do you like?!?!? Yea or Nea?!?!?

I just need a little more time to get it on to my etsy shop!!
but my friend is having a simpledaisy trunk show coming up...so even if I don't get it all on-line I will still be able to sell it there:)

I love making jewelry and I love styling it for photographs...so fun:)



I also made a new happy little wreath for my laundry room {which is ALMOST finished}
So simple.....

Get some seaglass and a wreath form...

pour a glass of vino and grab some chips....

and hot glue away.....

Oh I was at my friend's house and funny thing is....
her dogs like to help too:)

But I love dogs {you know that} so I didn't mind the extra help.
anywho....
here is the finished product!!


can't wait to finish the laundry room so I can hang in there and show you!!
Oh I should say....it is HEAVY so be careful when you hang it!!!!

I love it....I think it's super beachy and the colors are just perfect!

As always....let me know if you decide to give it whirl!!!

Alright, back to reality...I am off to mow the lawn then to pour a nice big glass of vino to enjoy the rest of my Sunday!!!!
Take care~

    New jewelry styles look great. The earrings on the right are my favs.

  3. Happy Sunday!
    Love the new hairstyle! It's adorable on you. The highlights look good to. (Would you believe I still have not colored my hair...I'm 56...to add highlights, I just open the sunroof on my car.And it works!)

    I love the seaglass wreath. It's the perfect beachy touch. I think I will make one for the "summer" family room.

    You mentioned wrinkles...those little laugh lines around your eyes? If you really don't like them you can try Eye Wish or Eye Tender. These products work wonders! (If you want info, email me).

    Do you have a particular source for your seaglass?

  4. ya, internet problems are a pain in the butt!!

    I LOVE the wreath. I have always been fond of seaglass... its always nice taking a walk on the beach and collecting it. I am a fan of the green glass (green happens to be my favorite color-any shade).

    and I think the bracelet that you have laying on the star fish is beautiful. You make all that jewelry yourself? you are quite an artist!!

    great work!
    and ps, nice do'!!

    have a great week!

  10. Love, love the hair!! It's want I want, well have (something like it)..., just without the bangs. My husband cuts my hair (I have to show this to him!! I'm afraid to go the hair dresser, haha.

    Love this craft project too! I've already have your wine charm ready to be published on Completely Coastal..., I'll save the seaglass wreath for later..., or vice versa, or combine them,hmmmm. See now I'm in conflict!

  13. Your hair is darling!

    About your question on hunger after running. It's actually quite common, especially for women, that exercise increases the desire to eat. Running, which is usually one of the highest calorie burns, will especially make this happen. Your body is trying hard to replenish the glycogen and fat stores. Also, another thought, is that you could be underhydrated. If you are sure it's not that, it's probably the biological urge of your body trying to maintain. If you are trying to lose weight (or just keep calories moderate) when hungry after exercise, boost the amount of protein and veggie portions, add a small amount of fat to help with satiety, but not so much as they are so calorie dense. If you have more questions, feel free to email me. :-)

  24. Found your blog when you left a comment on mine. I'm in love! Your blog with all the beautiful sea and sand colors, is just beautiful. Then I read further and find out that I can actually buy some of that jewelry. Not only that, your sea glass wreath is a fabulous idea and on my to do list for next week. On top of everything else you have great hair! Your blog is everything you promise — simple, fresh and happy. I'm off to look around more and figure out how to get me some of that beautiful jewelry to wear and give as gifts.

  28. I have a question about your sea glass...Is it natural found on the beach or is it manufactured? Thanks...very pretty either way...

  29. Love the wreath, saw it on Pinterest and had to come see your blog! It's so beautiful!

  30. One question about the wreath...when I hot glue sea glass...it doesn't stick. Eventually it falls off each other. E6000 works better but still not perfect.
